Amazon is moving the filming of its 'Lord of the Rings'' series from New Zealand to the UK
Amazon Studios announced Thursday that it is moving the filming of the second season of its highly anticipated, and extremely expensive,"Lord of the Rings" series to the United Kingdom."The shift from New Zealand to the UK aligns with the studio's strategy of expanding its production footprint and investing in studio space across the UK, with many of Amazon Studios' tentpole series and films already calling the UK home," Amazon said in a statement.
Nash said that Amazon was spending more than $460 million in New Zealand to produce the first season. He said that following the decision to relocate production, the government would pull some financial incentives that had been awarded to Amazon.Nearly two decades ago, Peter Jackson's"The Lord Of The Rings" trilogy, which won 17 Academy Awards, was largely filmed in New Zealand and showcased the country's natural scenery.
